Package: refit Version: 0.11-1 Severity: normal When a gpt partition is bigger than it can be represented in msdos label, gptsync will truncate it and just issue a warning. I think truncating a partition is _very wrong_ as it typicaly contains a filesystem and truncating that is likely to result in data corruption!
gptsync/gptsync.c: Print(L"Warning: Partition %d extends beyond 2 TiB limit\n", i+1); IMHO it should never do this unless user explicitly requested it, if at all. Simply excluding the partition looks like the safest bet. (However, if you and/or upstream still think this is alright, please at least consider adding a flag to have those partitions excluded from sync automaticaly) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ca_AD.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages refit depends on: ii libc6 2.7-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries refit recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
